in ch. 20 on pg 183 there is something about a hovering alien that has tenticles and is extremly smart cause they took apart a couple of car engines and put it back together w/ no problem
my question is, what the hell is this thing

A prophet. Certain avatars have prophets depicted in them. Mainly one.

i didn't think that prophets had tenticles
i just looked at the concept art of it and there where none
i know that the stuff in the books and the games are the same
but i didn't think there was that much of a difference

Fine, I'm wrong, but I could have sworn it was a prophet.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

Engineers have gas bladders that allow them to float.

Since when could engineers hover?


they always have. prophets don't hover by the way (their chairs do) and they also don't have tentacles.

And I see no reason for a Prophet to visit a hostile planet and walk around the streets pretty much unprotected.
